Our objectives

Vision

Our vision is to make Westminster becomes a borough where: ‘All families lead fulfilling lives, free from the consequences of poverty’.

Mission

Our mission is to enable families to independently address both the economic and social challenges that they face. We recognise the inter-related needs of parents and their children and aim to deliver a ‘whole family’ approach. We offer support early to prevent families reaching crisis.

Values

To ‘do with’ rather than ‘do for’ in all our interactions. In doing this we aim to promote sustainability, enabling personal growth rather than dependency

To promote participation – developing a culture of shared ownership, not one of provider: customer

To recognise the value of normalised, non-expert, relationships in empowering families

To be transparent in all of our work and foster an understanding and connection with the charity

To have respect – of peoples’ personal journeys and their strengths

To be inclusive – engaging people in the design and delivery of services to achieve meaningful change

To have a non-judgemental approach that provides equal access to all residents
